When I was a teenager I did but sadly I wasn't exposed to a lot bands back then and even when Napster became a thing it was a little too late. I always try to keep a open mind to not be stuck in a musical time capsule but like I said, few artist tear that wall of familiarity for me.
To me it's become a balancing act. Trying to challenge myself fairly regularly, while also making sure to listen to all the artists that I know that I love. There's only so many hours in a day, so of course there's a limit to how much new music one would need, but I do place some value in always pushing myself a little so that I don't become complacent.
